In vivo localization and oligomerization of PixD and PixE for controlling phototaxis in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.

The Journal of general and applied microbiology - 3 Jun 2021

Sugimoto Yuki, Masuda Shinji

Abstract excerpt

Phototaxis is a phenomenon where cyanobacteria move toward a light source. Previous studies have shown that the blue-light-using-flavin (BLUF)-type photoreceptor PixD and the response regulator-like protein PixE control the phototaxis in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The pixD-null mutant moves away from light, whereas WT, pixE mutant, and pixD pixE double mutant move toward the light. This...
